Abstract
(en) My research aims at understanding the conditions characterising how Jesuits related to Music in the Gallo- and Flandro-Belgian provinces – in the territory covering the Southern Netherlands and the Principality of Liège - from the second half of the 16th century to the suppression of the Company in 1773. Based on a thorough and unpublished analysis of various archive sources, my thesis approaches the musical phenomenon of the everyday life of fathers and students, as well as of the magnificence of ceremonies, confronting the realities of these manifestations with the official rules and ordinances of the order regarding music. Four areas of research have been defined: 1. Music in Jesuit churches; 2. Edifying through singing: spriritual canticles; 3. Training and musical practices in colleges and boarding schools; 4. Musician companions. In addition, this study examines the life and works of the jesuit composer Louis le Quoynte (1652-1717), apprehends the realities of his musical activity within the Company, and finally looks into his productions (psalms, motets, spiritual canticles) in the musical landscape of this period.
